The way they used the Williams Superman theme reminded me of David Arnold's approach to using the James Bond theme in that series. It is mostly a cue imbedded in otherwise new material and reserved for particularly heroic moments.
Jimmy is tasked with writing the story that exposes Lex Luthor. I love seeing how actors type on their computers and portray the act of writing, and I thought the way you guys did it was very natural.
Thank you! This is one of my biggest pet peeves as an actor. Whether it’s typing or texting or playing video games on a controller, there’s certain things that … I understand why actors do what they do. They’re told to do that because it just doesn’t read. You know, when you’re home alone typing on your computer, it’s very minimal movements. It doesn’t really read like anything on camera, so you have to do a little bit more. But I went into this thinking like, “Until James tells me I have to do more, I’m going to type like a normal person.” When have you ever played a video game and moved the controller around a bunch while you’re playing? But you watch actors do it; they’re shaking to the left and shaking to the right, because the alternative just doesn’t translate.
So that means the world to hear from a real reporter that it looked like I was actually typing. And I was! I remember thinking, “I’m going to type words in case anyone sees this. I don’t want to get memed looking like an idiot who’s just running his hands over the keys.”
It's definitely real. Remeber the film Brightburn:The film makes it clear multiple times the message is real - the conversation with Pa is pointless if it is not.
Do i like how they nerfed his strength? not really.
Bryne adds a specific beat I don't think I have seen elsewhere - Superman is born on Earth to make him specifically American via birthright citizenship. This point pops up again in A2001 where future Clark Kent can become president because of this fact.
Later versions return to him being actually born on Krypton.
That was the point I became a regular Superman reader.Yeah, Byrne really brought the character back to life creatively. His run on Superman was the most important for the character, in my arrogant opinion, of my lifetime and possibly since the first few years of his existence.
The did use a live action dog for certain scenes.Krypto: I loved the character and everything about Krypto's role in the movie. My nitpick is that Krypto was entirely done with CGI.
I wondered about that, but wasn't sure how they could have matched it with the CG. Do you know which scenes?The did use a live action dog for certain scenes.
They used a dog named Jolene is all I know from BTS stuff. She's not Krypto's color, so I assume some CGI trickery was involved.I wondered about that, but wasn't sure how they could have matched it with the CG. Do you know which scenes?
I mean, the ideal way to approach that would have been to cast a dog who looked right and was well-trained, maybe a couple, and then designed the animated dog to match them. But I'm pretty sure they didn't do that.
The dog was a stand in for the actors to interact with. I don't even think it looked like the dog we saw on screen. Everything Krypto was CGI.The did use a live action dog for certain scenes.
I think he was supposed to be a more effusive Mark Zuckerberg.Now that I look at Elon Musk was this Lex supposed to be on the spectrum?

“I have tons of videos of them playing,” the director told the Times. “In fact, when Krypto is jumping on Superman at the beginning of the movie, that’s all based on footage of him playing with my cat.”
